Oscar BRAY |
- Oscar and his brother Oliver were left to run the farm at Banyena Victoria, when father Thomas returned to St Arnaud in 1924. This enabled Thomas to enable his younger children to attend school. Oscar's sister Floss cooked on the farm till Oscar married Ella SMITH in 1933.
Oscar was about 25 years when he moved to his own farm of 300 acres, at Coonooer West. He later leased a further 400 acres.
Oscar died as a result of an accident involving his horse powered ploughing equipment. He fell from the seat when light was reflected from a passing car window. He got out from under the harvester, unhitched the six horses, and was then taken to a Doctor. He died two days later with a punctured lung.
